Any tips for stopping long term SSRIs?

I’ve been taking a stack of meds for a couple years now and they work great for me. It’s Prozac, Wellbutrin, and Vyvanse.
But I’ve been feeling numb recently. I told my psych, and we’re going to trial letting go of the Prozac. What should I expect? I’d like to have food taste good again, but I also don’t want the depression to come back.
My psychiatrist says that I should reach out to her if I feel intense multiday sadness, but are there other signs I should be looking out for?
I guess I’m just trying hear more about other people’s experiences with quitting/tapering off antidepressants.

I have been going through trials to see what ADHD medication might be a good fit for me, and as a side effect have amassed a good deal of unused pills. I have like 60 Vyvanse, a whole bunch of Strattera, and with how expensive they are I'd love to pass them off to someone who might be able to use them. Is this a possibility?
Cheers!
